brick eight days. His fore feet were
crippled. but otherwise he was in pretty
good condition. There Was vacant
space of about eight feet between the
Weldsy Block and the adjoining brick
building, owned by Mr.. VIM. Seidwitz.
and the theory is that the frightened
dog rushed between the buildings to
escape the storm. and WAS caught by the
falling walls. He was found under
timber, which had to be sawed of to
get him oE. but that timber kept the
weight of the bricks of bin, and saved
his life.
